Speaking out...for the rest of us.

I’m a HAWK for destroying our enemies at a moment’s notice and taking it to them with everything we’ve got. But, I am not stupid, and stupid policies get our best killed! I stand with this father 1000%!!!

If we’re not going to take it to the enemey, and let our soldiers take it to them, them BRING THEM ALL THE HELL HOME!!!!

After 10 YEARS, it’s up the Afghans risk ‘their’ lives and PATROL THEIR OWN DAMN COUNTRY!

My sympathies go out to the family over the loss of their loved one.If we’re not going to win the war in Afghanistan we should get out and stop wasting the lives of our troop and the treasure of the taxpayers.

The criticism echoes complaints from some Nebraska and Iowa troops as they return from the Afghan War. They say that they aren't allowed to fire at Afghans who they believe have just triggered roadside bombs. They say they often can't fight at night, or call in airstrikes, because of military leaders' fear of doing anything that angers the Afghan population.

The goal should be to make the population fear doing anyuthing that angers us. Otherwise we will lose and should leave now.

Military personnel dying in defense of the nation will always remain having given the highest price in love of their country, for me being heroes forever.

Nevertheless, there is much to say for mother's like Cindy Sheehan. But one incident of a tragic soldier's death will never leave me. One soldier having lost his life in a particularly heroic hard fought battle had his body returned not in a coffin but already resting in peace deep within some elaborate memorial.

Upon approaching the overwhelming, impenetrable edifice his mother so grief-stricken, emotionally crazed by her loss tried barreling her way through the hardened material shrieking his name,sobbing so pitifully I won't ever forget it, deprived of even one last embrace, one last look, no matter how he looked. Still, God Bless this heroic man, God Bless America.

Bring them home, all of them, bring them home now! We need not fight another war with wishy washy missions and wishy washy rules of engagement.

After we get the troops out of there, let's bring all the troops, all around the world home and issue our own fatwah!

We do have weapons of mass destruction! Mess with us or any of our few remaining allies and we will use them for what they were intended!
